Heat a small amount of canola oil in a pan and then sauté ginger, onions and garlic until aromatic.
Then add the tomatoes, sauté them with the aromatics for a few seconds. Then add 1 tbsp of butter. Wait until it's melted. Then add the marinated chicken. Sauté them until the juice from the chicken itself renders and then evaporates.

Once evaporated, add the marinated juice. Bring it to a simmer and then add the chicken cube. Mix until it dissolves. Then add the bay leaf and continue cooking for a few minutes.
